Apple Pro Mac iPad Mash-Up Rumored

I have a fairly constant stream of ‘tablet ambivalence’ running through this site. I do like them, I have tested a few and have usually enjoyed my time with them but, for me, they’re mostly just large phones that you can’t even make a call from.

Now, the Surface Pro and such. They’re useful. I am the proud owner of a Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro. I get the tablet handiness as well as a keyboard and a full operating system. Could Apple be aiming for an iPad Pro?

Well, if the latest rumours hold out, there may soon be a new product category coming from Apple.

There’s a source which is claiming that Apple is planning to launch a 12-inch tablet that runs both iOS and a form of the desktop Mac OS. Prepare to get your large pinch of salt ready.

Saying that though, it has been whispered that Apple’s working on a Pro tablet a number of times before, though. To be honest, I could actually see Apple slipping in to the business-aimed tablet market and the option to dual-boot would give the fruity one an edge in the enterprise world.

A number of my colleagues are equipped with iPads but the Pro incarnation, should it appear, would make more sense.

Now that the bendy iPhone 6 Plus has been released could the new, larger Pro iPad become the iPad 6 Plus?
